[Hawkular-dev] communty distribution question

This relates to the "[Hawkular-dev] Future Packaging of Hawkular" thread. I started this thread to discuss a specific scenario that I don't know how to handle. In addition to the components listed in that e-mail, there are a few other things in the Hawkular repo that weren't mentioned. For example, we have pinger and we have the inventory-event bus listener. I point out those two because I think they now exist solely to support the community UI. URL monitoring and Alert Center do not carry over to MIQ. With respect to the alert center we have out-of-box trigger definitions that are currently still active and are defined specifically to support the UI Alert center in Hawkular classic. And so we have a situation where code I would otherwise remove may need to exist to support the UI in the community distribution. Do we really want to keep a community-edition UI and the server-code that *only* supports what it does? If we remove it it will severely cripple the UI. But I fear that the UI will anyway quickly deteriorate unless we make concerted efforts to maintain compatible server code. Even today I think the UI is starting to falter. I'm not sure but when I tried to use the master version today to perform a deployment, it just hung. So in line with Juca's questioning, what sort of effort do we put into the community UI? A lot, and keep it working as best as we can and ensure we mark server code that is relevant to community UI support? None, and just make the server code be the headless provider it needs to be to support MIQ, or something in the middle (which usually ends up being a waste of time).
